Kernel#system works the same on windows and unix. Command line options
are given after the name of the program you want to run, separated by
a space. So, to start iexpress in quiet mode, try system('iexpress
/Q'). Alternately, you can pass each option in a separate string:
system('iexpress','/Q','/R:A') starts it in quiet mode and forces a
restart when iexpress exits.
